Chapter 180 Little Footprints

Arissa snorted, "Why didn't you think about prison when you were committing all those atrocities? You obviously thought that I would not survive, right? Too bad. Here I am!" She raised her dagger and swung. The man rolled his eyes and passed out.

"Pfft! What a coward. What should we do now, Boss?" Bradley saved the video and shot a dirty look at their captives.

Arissa drew back her dagger from the man's crotch. He deserved it for attempting to molest her. She wiped her dagger clean against the floor before putting it back in its sheath. "Mommy!" Oliver's voice rang at the door. Arissa turned around to block the gory scene from his view.

"What's wrong?"

"Mommy, Benjamin's men are on their way!"

"Where are they now?" Arissa scowled as she exchanged looks with Bradley.

"They're on the highway!"

"Let's go!" Arissa berated herself for forgetting about him.

They got into the car and left the place as fast as they could.

Right after they left, Benjamin and Ethen arrived at the scene with their men.

"Are they still alive?" Ethen was shocked when he saw the captives lying unconscious in the warehouse.

"Yes." Benjamin was certain.

Ethen gazed meaningfully at him. What does he know?

"Wake them up. The rest of you, search the place!" commanded Ethen. "Tsk tsk, what a horrible scene! I wonder who's behind this."

Who did this to them? How cruel. Almost as cruel as Mr. Graham!

Benjamin scanned the surroundings. There were footprints scattered all over the floor. He narrowed his eyes at the smaller ones.

"W-Who are you people?" The captives eventually regained consciousness. Their pupils dilated with fear at the sight of the intruders, especially Benjamin, who stood against the light. "That is not your concern." Ethen flashed them a half-smile as he radiated a menacing aura. After working under Benjamin for so many years, Ethen had mastered the skill. "Tell me, who brought you here?"

"Are you here to save us? Did Ms. Adams send you here?" Unable to conceal his excitement, the man made the mistake of assuming they were being saved.

Ethen turned to Benjamin, whose expression remained unreadable.

The foolish man spilled the beans without being probed.

"It was Arissa. She brought us here. She beat us up-"

"And why would she do that?" Ethen snapped.

The man gradually realized that the people in front of him were not here to save them. He looked away from Ethen.

Benjamin stepped in and gave Ethen a meaningful look.

The man trembled when he caught sight of Benjamin.

"B-Benjamin!"

Benjamin shot him a seething look. The man almost wet his pants.

"M-Mr. Graham!"

"I see you are no stranger to fear. Did it ever occur to you, when you kidnapped Mr. Graham's son, that something like this might happen?" Ethen thrust his foot at the man, then he nodded at the bodyguards. Instantly, miserable cries filled the air. Painful shrieks echoed throughout the abandoned warehouse and persisted for more than ten minutes.

The couple twitched weakly. Death would have been kinder. Not a single part of their bodies had been spared from torture.

"Mr. Graham... Please have mercy... It's all Ms. Adams' doing. We did not kidnap your children! We only want Arissa's kids. All four of them..." Terrified, the woman told Benjamin everything. Benjamin's eyes flickered.

Even Ethen couldn't suppress his shock.

"Four children? What do you mean? Ms. York only has two, doesn't she? Wait. Make that three if we count Gavin." Ethen cast a look at Benjamin, who had yet to come to his senses.

"T-There are four children with her. We just found out this morning, and they all look identical to Mr. Graham," the man confessed, still shaking.
